Holly Willoughby delights fans with reunion as she declares love at Robbie Williams premiere

by · Manchester Evening News

Holly Willoughby delighted fans as she reunited with one of her former co-stars. The former This Morning host was out at the premiere for Robbie Williams' new biopic, Better Man.

The music star is the subject of a biopic with a twist as the former Take That member is played by a CGI chimpanzee – a comment on how he feels like a "performing monkey".

The film is billed as showing "the meteoric rise, dramatic fall, and remarkable resurgence" of the British pop superstar who confronts "the challenges that stratospheric fame and success can bring."

Wednesday's (November 27) premiere in London's Leicester Square was also attended by Robbie's wife Ayda Field and stars of the film, including Raechelle Banno, who plays his former girlfriend Nicole Appleton.

The All Saints singer was accompanied by Holly to the event, with the musician dazzling in a glittering red gown. Holly, meanwhile, turned heads in a stunning plunging black dress that hugged her figure perfectly, paired with a chic black clutch. Her trademark blond locks, meanwhile were styled to perfection in lose waves, as she posed for the cameras.

Following the film showing, and an appearance on stage from the man himself, Holly took to Instagram with pictures of herself and Nicola, as well as her former Celebrity Juice co-star Leigh Francis, aka Keith Lemon.
